How soon will there be an emergency to make W go back to D.C.?
If I had to guess, I'd say in about a week. Even if for the trumped up reason that "Cindy and her supporters are bothering the locals and I care about them too much to blappity-blah-blab-blab...."

2. Oh jeez! I've been reading those articles
He won't go to D.C. in that event. He might be safer if he goes to Saudi!

4. I keep thinking of Reagan (ouch!)
And I can't help but believe that he would have sent a car for her the very first day. Of course there would have been no chance of agreement and resolution. But it would have been over. Cindy Sheehan is a phenomenon of W's making. If they can't handle this, no wonder they were stupid enough to invade Iraq. They don't know the first thing about human nature if all they're concentrating on is what they want.

9. Thinking of Clinton....
We wouldn't be in this mess. He knew enough to tell the neocons to talk to the hand.

It bothers me to even think of Reagan, btw. Ouch, ouch and ouch - that hurts!

10. You're right.
Reagan would have spoken to her, and of course Clinton would have as well (see below.) Any halfway-decent "politician" with skillz would talk to her. Let her complain, act humble, speak your piece, etc.

But Bush and his handlers know they CAN'T send Bush out there. Forget what she might say. Just because she might not call him "Mr. President" or "Sir" in every sentence. He'd lose it. Go ballistic on her. Let out his inner asshole that always lies uncomfortably close to the surface.

As formidale as Cindy is, I could see Reagan pulling some Dark Side with-a-smile verbal jujitsu on her and make HER look bad. Bush will just curse her in private and have to hope she eventually goes away.

8. Jinx!
I didn't see your post, before I made mine.

We essentially said the same thing--but you said it 7 mins before me!

Great minds think alike, I guess! :)

7. Well, it depends...
...on when the conservatives can find a brain-dead woman who is about to be taken off life support.

If one is found--I'm sure he will be on a flight to DC in about an hour.

Otherwise--he'll continue with the bike riding and brush clearing.
